Governor Jeff Landry kicked off Louisianas 2026 regular legislative session, highlighting significant progress in education, economy, and healthcare since his tenure. In education, Louisiana climbed eleven spots in the Nations Report Card, with fourth graders leading the country in reading gains. The state also saw a new court ruling allowing public schools to display the Ten Commandments in classrooms. On the economy, billions were invested in various sectors, creating over 124,000 private sector jobs.
